Before losing yourself completely to love
Drop bread crumbs around your feet.
You will find yourself far away and hungry.
// by Mark Yakich
the fall is far, but what isn’t? you see your feet nearest to you. everything else is there, at the bottom. you realize that it’s your future. but behind you, is the same thing. only a different fall with a different view. and your feet are still the closest thing you see. this way or that way. jump here, or turn and jump there. 07/11/2009
I just caught this smell, this good one, like a raspberry toaster strudel and a spelling book. Like I was really young again, and each part of every minute of my day was spent learning and experiencing everything first hand. Like my favorite year of elementary school, when I was completely content sitting alone at my desk all afternoon, trying over and over to cut out the most interesting and unique paper snowflake in the history of all paper snowflakes. And I could take as long as I wanted to make it just right.
